FC Fitment Sanity Check

Sorry if this has already been covered already but.....

17 x 9 + 24
245/40

Will this fit under rolled front fenders with coilovers? I don't want to install overfenders. I plan on running 255s out back and wanted to keep the handling as neutral as possible.

Thanks in advance.

No they won't.

You need a +15 offset anyways on 9" width to clear coilovers, +20 if you have OEM style struts.

if it helps any, i have 17x8 +30 with 255/40/17 and they have about a 1/4" between the tire and my tein flex's (i can squeeze my pinky between them). i suppose clearance with stock style struts is worse.
